Jazan records highest rainfall in Saudi Arabia at 33.7mm
Jazan saw the highest rainfall in Saudi Arabia yesterday, with 33.7mm recorded as wet weather continues across several regions this week.
Saudi authorities reported on Wednesday that three individuals lost their lives in attacks targeting two of the kingdom's international airports, following a claim by Yemen's Houthis to have launched assaults on the transport hubs. The Iran-aligned Houthis asserted responsibility for a series of attacks, which included firing a ballistic missile at Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport, as tensions escalate between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis.
On Tuesday and Wednesday, Abha International Airport and King Khalid International Airport both faced attacks on their facilities, according to the kingdom's civil aviation authority, though no one was officially blamed for the incidents. An Egyptian national and an Algerian national were among the three fatalities, with one Sudanese national also succumbing to injuries sustained during the attacks. In total, 36 individuals sustained injuries during the assaults.
